Can anyone fill in these blanks for HAMAKAZE Chief Engineers?

(E) Lt. Kaai Takashi (??) – 10 September 1941 – 10 October 1942

Could this person be KAWAI Takashi 河相巍 (Eng. 44)?

For AKIGUMO Chief Engineers, I have the following entry:
LT YAMAMOTO Masahide (??) - 5 November 1942 – 6 August 1943

Could the above possibly be YAMAMOTO Masuhiko 山本益彦 (Eng. 40)?

Help ijnfleetadmiral,

Thanks for the info! INAZUMA's record is now complete. Got a few more for DesDiv 6:
IKAZUCHI
Gunnery Officers
LT MIYANO Tosaburo (52) – 15 October 1935 - ???
??? - ??? – 28 July 1937

LT / LT MIYANO Toyosaburo 宮野豊三郎 (52): 15 October 1935 - 12 July 1937 (1935.10.16.Frm3 / 2 C13072072100)

AKATSUKI
Chief Engineers
??? – 15 June 1938 - 5 December 1939

AKATSUKI belonged to;
DesDiv 10: 19 May 1932 - 15 November 1939
DesDiv 6: 15 November 1939 - 13 November 1942 (Sunk)
DesDiv10 became a Reserve DesDiv on April 1938.
So I think AKATSUKI Engineer Officer was vacant during 15 June 1938 - 5 December 1939.

HIBIKI
Need class info for the following Chief Engineers:
OTSUKA Goichiro (25 September 1945 – 25 January 1946)
IWASAKI Hiroshi (25 January 1946 – 10 January 1947)

Unfortunately the only one useful sauce 義済会員名簿 Giseikai Membership List didn’t cover young officers like them.
